除夜｜oLD yEAR dAY

一年之末，
一年之始，
一夜之思。
The end of the year,
The start of the year,
The thinking of the night.

王諲 或 史青【未能證實的詩人，唐朝開元盛世（七一二至七四二年）之初期】－《除夜》：
Wang Yin or Shi Qing [Unconfirmed poets, the early of Kaiyuan (peak) period of Tang Dynasty (712-742)] – “Old Year’s Day”:

今歲今宵盡，明年明日催。
寒隨一夜去，春逐五更來。
氣色空中改，容顏暗裏回。
風光人不覺，已著後園梅。
This year ends tONIGHT, tOMORROW urges next year to come.
wINTER ends over the night, later sPRING comes in the morning.
Climate and colours cHANGED in the air, and people are rEJUVENATED.
People are not aware of the aDVENT of Spring, in fact he has tOUCHED the plums in the backyard.

嘆，
時間流逝，物是人非，人是物非，變幻無常。
Sigh,
Times flies, people and things change unpredictably.

然，
毋忘本心，人性本善。懷著信念，振翅高飛。
However,
Not to forget the original heart, people are basically good. Just fly with faiths and wings.

《除夜》有感：
天氣反常，多國生活上有著明顯的變化。猶如冬天，植物未必枯萎，顏色未必灰暗，日子未必冰凍。
而某些地方還提早回春，彷彿太陽跟地球正在吵架一樣⋯⋯
Thoughts of “Old Year’s Day”:
Due to unusual weathers, lives apparently changed in many countries.
Such as Winter, the plants may not be withered, the colours may not be darkened, the days may not be freezing.
And some places have also been “rejuvenated” earlier, it feels like the Sun is arguing with the Earth……
